This film was enjoyable, It does move at a very slow pace and you have to be patient with it. Such a satisfying ending with very little trickery, which In a film as this I found delightful. There were a couple points I was wondering about and the first one was of sophi's character and after he gave her the money to follow her dream, Did she ever return to him or took him up on his word that he could take care of himself and did not want her to return. The second question was did the husband and daughter move on without the wife. Even though she planned to return. I got the feeling he gave up and she was only going home to see here daughter.

The film makers have left it up to viewers to decide for themselves what the fate of the characters will be. In the case of Catherine, I think her husband was responding to her silence and the pain Catherine was causing Hanah. I'd like to think that they could work it out. I don't know if Sophia would return with John, or maybe hook-up the the gardener.

As the Sorvino character told her father...it is not about him. This story is NOT about the loved ones left out of these three women's lives. it is about three women coming to terms with things they did. I think, if Olivia's relationship with John was strong, she will return or not if it wasn't (I suspect it was)...but that is NOT the point.

It is certainly suggested that in 30 minutes or so, these women would find out the common thread in their lives that brought they all to the same airport terminal table.

Great movie!
